Yes or No?
Which are you more inclined to pick? Yes or no?
I don't know if anything can be said of a person who picks one over the other based JUST on this poll but I'm sure it could be equated somehow to optimism vs. pessimism, glass half full vs. glass half empty, etc.
So, if given the options of Yes or No, which feels more natural to select and why do you think you picked the one you did? I realize that it depends on the question being asked, but in this case the question is simply "Yes or No?"
I went with Yes. I think in general I am optimistic so maybe that has something to do with it.

I picked yes. Not sure if it's because of optimism, or vanity (it does look more like my username), or because it's simply the first and top choice.

Yes, mainly because what ysabel said that it was the first option.

I went for No.
Why? I generally say no more than yes.
If anyone asks me a question or offers me something I usually say 'no thanks'. If I would like a drink I'd ask for one, I don't feel the need to be continually offered, if I want a credit-card I shall goto a bank I don't need to be sold one. So yeah I find I say No more times than I say Yes.
I'm a polite tentative scrutiniser.

Hm, that's awfully snobby.
I chose 'yes' but I think that's because it was the first option.

Growing up in the 80's and early 90's the big campaign was "Just say no." So in honor of Nancy Regan and her campaign once again I said yes.

I chose no because I've always considered it to be the stronger word. It's a lot more difficult to say "no" than it is to say "yes".
